More than 900 members of the community are expected to sound off Wednesday night about their extreme displeasure concerning a possible ban on alcohol in one of Denver's most popular parks. A community forum will begin at 6 p.m. at Denver Baha'i Center, 225 E. Bayaud Ave., to discuss the potential ban on 3.2 beer — the only alcohol currently allowed — in Washington Park.

If they succeed with an alcohol ban, they will succeed with a "pot" ban. This method the city is using, is the only way to make BOTH successfully banned. The councilman is seeing the big picture on this one.

At the tone, leave your name and message and I'll get back to you."Jim, it's Beth. You have the vet's number, the flea collar and extra litter. One thing I forgot, keep him away from the other cats. He's not very discriminating."

In my travels around Europe and the US, I don't remember ever seeing a city park without public restrooms, in any other town.

How Denver seems to get away with it is a mystery to me.

I guess it's more important that we have publicly built pro sports stadiums that are too expensive for the public to attend, the police have every corner camera'd, drones, SWAT Tanks and machine guns, than the public have basic services.

I don't know, maybe while we're at it, we should just go ahead and turn public parks into for-profit prisons, the nation's fastest growth industry.

That will clean things up, eh?

Or, maybe we could start voting these blue-nosed, hinky-tinks and their laws, out of office and out of government?

Maybe we should require an IQ test for the people who want to run for election?

This is nothing more than a ploy by the park neighbors for remove the crowds from "their" park.

How about 2 uniformed cops walk the beat in the park on weekends and arrest the few bad apples? It'll only take a couple of arrests to "remind" those who think they can tie one on to behave themselves.

It is no surprise that the people using Denver parks want to throw down some cold ones after how Denver nannies them non-stop. This is just another step toward progressive utopia. Can't you just feel the love when the politicians wan't to run your life non-stop since they think that the plebs are to stupid to live their lives without Government intervention.

Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Do cops walk?

Thumbs down don't change reality.

Progressives want beer to remain. Hand-wringing conservatives want it banned. Can you prove otherwise? It doesn't matter which letter the politician has after his name because he's responding (as he should) to the concerns of the people he represents.

Crime has decreased since retail marijuana was legalized, but the Denver Post won't tell you because it interferes with their prohibitionist propaganda.
